I have to agree with Darius! As a field specialist for PGT, I can tell you that we test our products with full support, thus we require that same full support under our products. Also, please keep in mind that drywall in not considered a structural component as needed for support.

There are other issues affecting the drainage plane in the veneer as well that could create some liability for he window installer. Again, the proper way to install a replacement window in this application is to cut the drywall back to allow the thicker window to be inset enough to gain proper transfer of loads to the framing. I spent about 20 years selling as a wholesaler and then as a contractor supervising installation of replacement windows, my recommendations are based on sound installation that complies with recommendations contained in many manufacturers detail instructions and drawings. I am sure PGT would agree with the recommendation to insure the window gets a good bite in the buck.

You are fortunate in this case you are working with a Florida company - they will understand you more readily than out-of-staters.

(However I could be wrong) Apparently the old window covered the opening so there's a reason why it didn't go further back in when it was installed. It would be easier if we could actually see the opening.. I'm not sure PGT would have much to say about putting the screw into the glue attached wood. As long as the distance from screw to veneer side of wood met NDS standards then the only question is how strong is the wood to wood bond? (typically adhesives are stronger than the wood itself) Perhaps Terrance will let us know how it turns out. l8r, glen ----- Original Message ----- From: "Darius Grimes" <dgrimes at SkyeTec.com> To: <codetalk at myfloridacode.com> Sent: Monday, November 17, 2008 1:47 PM Subject: Re: [Florida Code Talk] Window Replacement with Brick veneer > Glen that is a field solution but I would still require a letter from > the manufacturer before attempting to fasten to a glued in buck.
